Apple TV+ made an exciting announcement in March 2024: they have officially greenlit Season 2 of The Last Thing He Told Me, turning the series into a full-fledged show. While there's no official premiere date yet, it’s likely that the next season will debut sometime in the second half of 2025.

The big news about Season 2 is that it will be based on Laura Dave's upcoming sequel novel, which is set to release in 2025. Though there are still many details being kept secret, fans can expect to learn more about both the book and the show in the upcoming months.

The series is expanding beyond the original limited run, offering a deeper look into the story of Hannah and her complicated life.


Plot speculation

Season 2 will see the return of Jennifer Garner as Hannah, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Owen, Angourie Rice as Bailey, and David Morse as Bailey’s grandfather, Nicholas Bell. While much is still unknown about the plot, the characters' journeys are sure to continue evolving as they deal with the lingering effects of the events from Season 1.

Laura Dave, the author of the original novel and its sequel, has been hard at work on the follow-up book, which will be released in 2025. Fans can anticipate a deeper dive into Hannah’s life as she faces new challenges, and the adaptation will likely take inspiration from the yet-to-be-named novel.

At a 2023 TV event, Dave revealed that writing the sequel has felt like she’s living through the story alongside Jennifer Garner’s portrayal of Hannah.

Though the plot for Season 2 is being kept under wraps, viewers can expect plenty of suspense and emotional drama. With the continuation of Owen and Hannah’s story and the possible introduction of new threats, the second season will likely ramp up the tension. Hannah’s decisions about her future, Bailey’s safety, and Owen’s fate will all play significant roles in the plot.


Cast details

Along with the main cast from Season 1 like Jennifer Garner, Angourie Rice, Aisha Tyler, Augusto Aguilera, and many more, the show will also feature new faces. David Morse’s return is a major development, as his character played a key role in both the show and the book.

Expect to see more of his involvement in the second season as Hannah and the others continue to navigate their complicated situations.

One of the most pressing questions fans have is whether Hannah and Owen will finally reunite in Season 2. Their heartbreaking separation in Season 1 left viewers hoping for a reunion. However, given Owen’s fugitive status, it seems unlikely that they will have a simple and happy ending. How their relationship evolves will be central to the upcoming season.

Bailey’s journey is also a key part of the story. After being dragged into the dangerous world of organized crime, her future is uncertain. With her protection guaranteed for now, the real question is whether she’ll ever have a chance at a normal life. The next season will likely explore her growth and her relationship with her stepmother, Hannah.

As we await more details about The Last Thing He Told Me Season 2, one thing is clear: the show is far from over. With a sequel novel coming in 2025 and more suspenseful twists on the way, the journey of Hannah, Bailey, and Owen is just beginning.

Fans of the show can look forward to a deeper dive into their stories, and it’s safe to say that the next chapter will be just as thrilling, if not more, than the first.
